El romancero tradicional de Cantabria: el ciclo del tabú del incesto
No full textTesis inédita de la Universidad Complutense de Madrid, Facultad de Filología, leída el 11-12-2015El objetivo principal de esta tesis doctoral supone una nueva propuesta de análisis del ciclo del incesto aún presente en el Romancero, y de forma más precisa, en las versiones cántabras de los romances Delgadina, Silvana, Tamar, Primos Romeros, Cura Traidor y Blancaflor y Filomena. Para el mejor manejo de los cientos de versiones existentes de estos romances, nos hemos centrado en los textos procedentes de Cantabria. Para tal fin, hemos confeccionado el corpus de Cantabria con los romances que se han venido publicando desde los albores del siglo XX hasta la actualidad, incluyendo mi aportación personal al corpus fruto del trabajo de campo realizado entre 1999 y 2003 en los que recopilé 250 versiones de romances, 190 textos de la tradición oral y entrevistado cerca de 192 informantes. Así, los romances Delgadina y Silvana tratan el incesto paterno filial, el romance Tamar versa sobre el incesto entre hermanos, el texto Primos romeros, el incesto entre primos, el romance vulgar Cura Sacrílego nos presenta el asunto del incesto espiritual, y, finalmente, el romance Blancaflor y Filomena trata la prohibición existente entre cuñados. Los romances nos informan sobre los argumentos de evitación del incesto en los que, en algunos casos, media la violencia. De este modo, se expresa la subversión de los roles de parentesco, la prohibición basada en un precepto divino y el infructuoso intercambio frente al argumento de la belleza de la joven. Incluso, se trata el tema de la venganza a través del infanticidio y del banquete ritual. Estos trágicos sucesos colocan a los lectores al lado de la víctima al tiempo que nos interpela y cuestiona sobre la actualidad de estos romances en un tema considerado tabú. Con todo, sigue resultando llamativo el hecho de que estos romances sigan transmitiéndose principalmente por la figura femenina...This doctoral thesis mainly aims at a new analysis proposal regarding the incest cycle still present in the Romancero (Ballad poetry), and more precisely, in the Cantabrian versions of ballads such as Delgadina, Silvana, Tamar, Primos Romeros, Cura Traidor and Blancaflor and Filomena. For better handling of hundreds of existing versions of these ballads, we have focused on texts from Cantabria. For that purpose, we have prepared the Corpus of Cantabria with ballads published since the dawn of the 20th century to the present, including my personal contribution to the corpus as a result of the field research conducted between 1999 and 2003 in which 250 versions of romance poetry, 190 texts from oral tradition and evidence from 192 informants have been collected. Thus, ballads Delgadina and Silvana deal with parent-child incest, ballad Tamar focuses on incest between siblings, the text in Primos romeros deals with incest between cousins, vulgar ballad Cura Sacrílego introduces the subject of the spiritual kinship and, finally, ballad Blancaflor and Filomena addresses the existing prohibition between brothers/sisters in law. Ballads inform us about arguments to avoid incest in which, sometimes, violence is involved. This way, the subversion of kinship roles, the prohibition based on a divine precept and the unsuccessful change against the argument supporting the beauty of the young woman are expressed. Even the subject of revenge by means of infanticide and ritual feasts is addressed. These tragic events place the reader next to the victim and at the same time question and challenge the relevance of these ballads regarding a topic considered a taboo subject. The fact that these ballads are still being transmitted, mainly, by the female figure, is still striking...Fac. de FilologíaTRUEunpu
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
